This is a circuit design for a typical wall-plug power adapter.

The sinusoidal source represents a typical US 60 Hz, 120V AC wall supply.

A transformer steps the voltage down to a manageable range to be rectified for a 5V DC supply, but the waveform is still sinusoidal.

The 4 diode bridge rectifier takes this lower amplitude sinusoidal signal and produces a DC biased result, but still with noise resulting from the rectification process.

The capacitor before the voltage regulator chip helps smooth some of this noise. Then the regulator chip provides a self-contained, feedback controlled mechanism to keep the output voltage at the specified value.

The output capacitor further smooths any output ripple and provides a reservoir of charge to supply any surge in current load that may be encountered.

This example includes a load resistor that allows the exploration of the effects of load. The load is varied during the simulation and it can be seen that above a load of 100 mA, the regulation of the output voltage begins to deteriorate.

The addition of a few components can make it possible for such a circuit to provide significantly higher power loads. See http://www.systemvision.com/design/ac-dc-power-adapter-current-boost-regulator for an example.

Dit is een circuitontwerp voor een typische stroomadapter voor een stopcontact.

De sinusoïdale bron vertegenwoordigt een typische Amerikaanse 60 Hz, 120V AC-wandvoeding.

Een transformator verlaagt de spanning naar een beheersbaar bereik om te worden gelijkgericht voor een 5V DC-voeding, maar de golfvorm is nog steeds sinusoïdaal.

De bruggelijkrichter met 4 dioden neemt dit sinusoïdale signaal met lagere amplitude op en produceert een DC-voorgespannen resultaat, maar nog steeds met ruis als gevolg van het rectificatieproces.

De condensator vóór de spanningsregelaarchip helpt een deel van deze ruis te verzachten. Vervolgens biedt de regelaarchip een op zichzelf staand, feedbackgestuurd mechanisme om de uitgangsspanning op de opgegeven waarde te houden.

De uitgangscondensator maakt eventuele uitgangsrimpels verder glad en zorgt voor een ladingsreservoir voor het leveren van eventuele pieken in de stroombelasting die zich kunnen voordoen.

Dit voorbeeld bevat een belastingsweerstand waarmee de effecten van belasting kunnen worden onderzocht. De belasting wordt tijdens de simulatie gevarieerd en het is te zien dat boven een belasting van 100 mA de regeling van de uitgangsspanning begint te verslechteren.

De toevoeging van een paar componenten kan het voor een dergelijk circuit mogelijk maken om aanzienlijk hogere vermogensbelastingen te leveren. Zie http://www.systemvision.com/design/ac-dc-power-adapter-current-boost-regulator voor een voorbeeld.
